Since I can remember, Gilmore Girls has been one of my all time favorite shows. Aside from the Lorelai's great taste in movies, music and books, the show is filled with quirky moments that make you love each character from day one. To top it off Lorelai and Rory have a mother/daughter relationship anyone would … Continue reading Gilmore Girls on Post-Grad Life

Lessons in Greatness
When I was younger my dad was PTA president. He was so extremely involved in both my studies and after school activities. He chaperoned all my field trips and attended each and every one of my track and field meets and even my dance recitals.

Israel is Home
When I found out I was accepted into the summer birthright trip I thought I would burst at the seams from the joy I felt inside.

Finding your luck
Seeing as it's St. Patricks day, it seemed only reasonable (at least in my mind) to talk about finding your luck, and no I don't mean a pot of luck at the end of the rainbow. Thinking about the things that have happened in my life in the past month and looking at people in … Continue reading Finding your luck
The Future of my Homeland
As days drag on the victor in the presidential elections in El Salvador is still unclear. After a runoff election and almost a a week since the polls closed it appears that the choice - and therefore the fundamental idea of democracy - has been taken away from the people altogether in what seems like … Continue reading The Future of my Homeland
